Come on folks. Time to get serious about prevention. How about finding the cause. Finally, after over 30 years of
knowing the HPV virus was "associated" with cancer of the cervix, head and neck, and others, WE FINALLY
HAVE A VACCINE.
The medical and public health community does not do enough to warn the public (especially youngsters) about
the dangers of unprotected sex. Not just for STDs but also cancer. Not just cervical but how about breast,
leukemia, lymphoma..and others. Only university-based research seems to be "on" this.
You get the picture. Yes we must help those afflicted survive BUT we must prevent! I know it's not much of a
money-maker for the business of medicine (sadly) but IT IS TIME TO STOP DRAGGING OUR FEET.
We need a vaccine against the HERPES group to start with. Meanwhile the virus cause of breast cancer needs to
be found. My take is that it is a retrovirus. It seems that this group is the cause of breast cancer in other mammals.
We can Avon-walk all we want, blame it on food we eat and air we breathe but that is the big lie. We must keep our
kids safe by telling the truth. Multiple sex partners are life threatening. Penicillin won't help them anymore..

Obesity is a symptom and NOT a cause. We
need to stop trying to fight symptoms. The
absolute best prevention screening is
screening for sleep disorders..
